The Ultimate Champagne
Louis Roederer Cristal
In 1876 the Czar of Russia demanded of his friend, Louis Roederer, that he fashion a special cuvee just for him and that the bottle be made of crystal, hence the birth of the now illustrious Cristal champagne. The blend is a combination of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and matures on the lees for at least six years to develop the characteristics for which it is lauded world over. Although many of today's celebrities choose to drink Cristal simply for the statement and impression it makes, this wine really shines when served in the company of fine cuisine. The complex style, rich flavors and prolonged finish are perfectly suited to the very best in gastromonic treats like lobster, oysters and caviar. Demand continues even in our trying economic times. Quantities are extremely limited. This wine is not in stock but arrives very soon. Please act quickly on this special, pre-arrival offer.
2002 Louis Roederer Champagne Brut "Cristal"
Pre-Arrival Sale Price $199.99
Compare to The Wine Advocate's Price of $457
"Roederer's 2002 Cristal is still in its infant, fresh stage. Subtle notes of pears, flowers, spices, mint, minerals and oak are woven into a cashmere-like frame of extraordinary grace and elegance. This beautifully-sculpted Champagne possesses notable clarity but with the additional depth of fruit that is characteristic of this vintage. It is a gorgeous, seductive Cristal of the highest level."
